What do you mean by all the necessary files are in place?

If you have an Oracle ODBC driver (either MS or Oracle) then you can use ODBC If as other have suggested you have oo40 you can use Oracle Objects

Or (my preferred solution) you can use ado and an oledb driver. This last solution is likely to mean that there is lots of sample code you can steal.... sorry use for inspiration. It also means porting the app across to sql server or whatever is made much much easier.
